"This is a traditional house and there's a lot of windows.?It's a nice sized house but it's not like enormous, but I do happen to have like a lot of windows in this house.?Plus I have storm windows, and so they had to take the storm windows off and do those inside and out and then the windows inside and out, and so it adds up to - I think I have probably forty windows on all three levels of the house.?They are window cleaners, but they also do things like power wash your deck, and they power washed the roof gutters. We had them do extra things, not just the windows. They were very good, and I got them off of Angie's List.?It was an extra hundred to have them power wash the deck and another hundred to power wash the gutters.Their price is comparable to others that we've had in the past. They were really good men, very pleasant.?I'd give them an A all the way down."

"After a slightly delayed start, Marcus and Percy arrived, and quickly de-limbed the tree.    They brought the trunk down, and piled the residue for removal the next day.     It all happened without a glitch.     The men were professional, friendly and very good at their work.    We have used Rainbow Treecare in the past, and will do so again in the future."

"We loved our Limo ride with Travis driving us around the city seeing Christmas lights. There were six of us and plenty of space to have our treats and drinks. The ride was very comfortable and the inside of the limo was clean and beautiful interior/lights. The tour was 3 hours and took us to some amazing light displays. Our driver, Travis, was very accommodating, informative and stopped to allow photo ops. I would highly recommend this as a Christmas tradition."

"I wanted to do an entire home remodel, and I don’t have concept of color and/or flow. Sue was referred to me by a Realtor friend. Sue was one of 3 that I interviewed. Our first meeting was understanding my vision, picking out colors, talking about flow, etc. The next was picking out flooring, tiles, paint, hardware, etc, then we shopped for furniture. Sue developed the vision/template, my contractor brought it to life. I love the end product. I’ve referred to others who are also seeking a change"

"It was very expensive.   This year we used them, but it seems quite expensive for the roof line.   We didn't have any trees or anything else done.  They were very professional.  They came on time for installation and take down.   I think they are really good, but just really expensive.   If there was an option to buy the lights or do a multi year deal, that would reduce the overall cost, that would be great. <br />"

"Bridget was on time and prepared to clean. she brought her own Green cleaning supplies as I requested and did not need to ask me for anything extra. Bridget was extremely thorough and she put everything back the way i had them. Also, I asked for her help arranging my kitchen and bathroom cupboards and drawers and was very impressed with her organizing abilities and overall performance. I will definitely have Bridget clean and organize for us again. <br />"

FAQs for holiday lighting add or remove projects in Mayer, MN

If climbing ladders or handling wiring isn’t in your comfort zone, hire a pro. Look for installers who post clear per-foot or hourly rates, carry insurance, and have solid reviews. Comparing at least three quotes helps you spot fair pricing without sacrificing safety. Skipping credentials to save a few dollars can cost you far more in repairs, so pick a qualified team and enjoy a safe, eye-catching display.

Yes, booking between February and September often scores lower rates because demand is light and pros have open calendars. You might even negotiate a discount package that includes removal or storage. If the budget is tight, ask whether a handyperson or an off-season permanent-light install makes sense for your home and timeline.

Determining the number of holiday lights for your house depends on your home’s size and specific decorative vision. Your project requires 10 to 20 light strands for a basic exterior display, with 100 lights allocated for eaves and an additional 10 to 20 bulbs for each awning. 

For trees and substantial shrubs, allocate five to 10 strands per unit to achieve complete and balanced illumination across your property.

Tipping isn’t mandatory, but it’s a nice way to thank your installer for a job well done. Most homeowners offer 10% to 20% of the total bill or round up to an even figure if the crew exceeds expectations. A small extra goes a long way toward showing appreciation—and may help you snag priority booking next season.

Yes, you can install holiday lights yourself if your property layout is straightforward and your electrical system is secure. Homeowners who are confident in their ability to safely handle wiring and use proper equipment can save money with a DIY approach. 

However, it is crucial to test all outlets thoroughly and secure the proper ladders and safety gear before starting. Careful planning and adherence to safety guidelines are essential to protect yourself and your home while achieving an attractive display.

Start by clearing the area of loose debris, damaged shingles, and anything that could trip you up. Test outdoor outlets and, if you’re unsure, bring in an electrician. Use a sturdy extension ladder (or scaffolding for very high spots) and never work alone—having a helper steady the ladder is non-negotiable. Taking these simple steps keeps you, your roof, and your new lights safe.
